Like all the Kingdoms of England before unification under the Normans? Or like the unification of the six Kingdoms of Ireland by the Normans 100 years later? Local government is important. Thats why each of the 4 countries in the UK have their own representation.

The importance of this is to stave off the genocide that the English had been trying for centuries. People think that genocide is mass killings, but that's only the end results.

Why now more than ever? Anglo-Irish relations are at their absolute peak in terms of positivity, we look on the Irish better than ever here in GB 🇬🇧 and it’s probably vice versa. There’s absolutely no view in Britain to lay claim to the RoI and not even our most extreme politicians call for that. Our governments even have defence pacts to ward off Russia aircraft/submarines and of course the Good Friday Agreement that allows people to choose to be Irish or British and allows free movement everywhere on both islands.
